3.3 How to use the Streamer
1. The best listening quality is achieved by using the neck strap, i.e.
hands free around the neck. The neck strap enhances the sound quality
because it has an additional antenna built-in.
2. The Streamer can be kept in a pocket when not streaming audio, however
still ready to receive a phone call.
3. The Streamer can be handheld during a phone conversation by holding it
close to the mouth. This ensures good quality of your speech brought to
the other person.
4. When using the Streamer outside in strong wind, the sensitive
microphone should be protected against wind noise, i.e. avoid the wind
going directly into the microphone.
5. Like a normal phone, the Streamer microphone is sensitive to
mechanical noise (handling, knocking and scratching). Make sure that
the Streamer is positioned and held calmly and still during a phone
conversation.
6. The microphone must be oriented directly towards your mouth while
speaking within a distance from 10 to 30 cm (4 – 12 inches). This is
ensured when using the neck strap.
7. Depending on the placement of the Streamer minor drop outs of sound
can occur. If you have two hearing instruments, sound should remain in
one ear even though a drop out is happening. (To prevent drop outs, the
neck strap should be used).
The following illustrations show how the Streamer should be placed during
use.
